Just For One Day – The Live Aid Musical has announced an expanded list of tour dates for 2027.
Jamie Wilson Productions, in association with Curve Leicester, will take the musical on a major UK tour beginning in March 2027.
The tour will open at Curve, Leicester before visiting previously confirmed stops in Cardiff, Canterbury, Manchester, Oxford, Edinburgh, Plymouth, Sunderland, Birmingham and Nottingham.
Newly announced venues include Hull New Theatre, Leeds Grand, Glasgow King’s Theatre, Liverpool Empire and Southampton Mayflower.
Bob Geldof said “Just For One Day brilliantly reimagines why Live Aid worked then and why the humanity of that day still matters now. I’m delighted that more of the UK and Ireland will finally get to see this extraordinary and compelling musical. The reaction the show gets continually surprises and amazes me, standing ovations and people come back time and again, introducing the Live Aid story to new generations.”
Audiences will experience behind the scenes of Live Aid, more than forty years after the landmark 1985 event united music fans around the world.
Featuring hit songs by Bob Dylan, David Bowie, The Who, U2, Queen, Madonna, The Police, Elton John, Paul McCartney, Diana Ross and others, the musical reimagines the iconic music of that day for a new generation.
Just For One Day – The Live Aid Musical completed its West End run in February 2026, following engagements in Toronto and at London’s Old Vic, where it became the theatre’s fastest selling musical.
The show continues to support The Band Aid Charitable Trust, with £1.6 million raised to date.
Written by John O’Farrell and directed by Luke Sheppard, the production features musical supervision, arrangements and orchestration by Matthew Brind, choreography by Ebony Molina and casting by Stuart Burt CDG.
